If patching, the patch log (/home/oracle/Aveksa_7.1.0_P05/logs/7.1.0_P05_2019-03-14-1436.log ) shows the following error:
Wildfly is running

Creating aveksa.ear file for deployment
Exception while building deployment ear file.
Could not find created archive file aveksa_7.1.0_143825_P05-2019-Mar-14-14.41.ear. Please check /home/oracle/archive/ if using a relative path
An error occured in the customizeACM command : error code 3
Error deploying the ear file
Step failed! See /home/oracle/Aveksa_7.1.0_P05/logs/7.1.0_P05_2019-03-14-1436.log for more information.
Cause
There was a folder called aveksa_tmp that was added to /tmp/customizeACM when the aveksa.ear file was being rebuilt to include customizations. This folder is used by RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle when rebuilding the aveksa.ear file. If it already exists, the rebuild of the ear does not complete correctly. Specifically the aveksa.war file is not zipped.
Resolution
Repackage the aveksa.ear by first removing any files and directories that are not specifically for customizations. In this case, the 'aveksa_tmp' folder needs to be removed.
Steps
- Fix the contents of /home/oracle/archive/<latest>.ear and re-create the EAR. To do this, login as the oracle user and complete the following tasks:
mkdir test
cd /home/oracle/test
mkdir unpack
cd unpack
mkdir ear
cd ear
jar xvf /home/oracle/archive/<latest>.ear
rm -fr aveksa_tmp
cd ..
jar cvf <latest>.ear -C ear .
- Make a backup copy of /home/oracle/archive/aveksa_7.1.0_143825_P02-2018-Sep-12-0.34.ear.
- Replace /home/oracle/archive/aveksa_7.1.0_143825_P02-2018-Sep-12-0.34.ear with /home/oracle/test/unpack/aveksa_7.1.0_143825_P02-2018-Sep-12-0.34.ear. For example,
cp /home/oracle/test/unpack/aveksa_7.1.0_143825_P02-2018-Sep-12-0.34.ear /home/oracle/archive
Notes
Note that RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle does not need to be restarted when rebuilding the ear file. The files under the /home/oracle/archive folder have no affect on the deployed WildFly components.
